    Most Magical Book Ever!

    I'm a children's book reviewer, and I've read A LOT of books for ages 8-18. And the Neverending Story is by far the most magical book I've ever read. I have purposely never seen the film, as I find movies always ruin books for me. Since I read this book about 10 years ago, I have read it 5 times, and I think I enjoy it more with each read. I would have to say this is my favorite book of all time.

    This book can be read by all ages since it is well written but is still easy to read. It is great for fantasy lovers, and the pages just fly by, even though there are 440 pages. There are many original ideas that had never occurred to me before. The story kept me interested from start to finish. A boy gets swept into a magical book, in which he tries to save all the Fantastican creatures, but with every wish he makes loses his memory of the real world.

    I find it difficult to get through a complete book as my interest usually fades within the first half. Yet I found myself devouring this book in it's entirety and was dissapointed when I had to put it down.

    I thought after seeing the movie with my children that the book would not be of any interest to me but I was wrong. The twists and turns keep you wondering and never on the same page .
    Don't question it, get it!

    if you have seen the movie and liked it, you should read this amazing novel, it is way better, even if you didn't like the movie READ THE BOOK books are usually better then the movies are anyway. This is a classic, i bought one of the hardcover ones and it was totaly worth the extra money, parts of the book are in a different colour and everything (theres a reason for it, but you need to read the book to find out why there are two different coloured fonts. If you like fantasy and like to dream and get lost in a book, this is definatly the one to choose, its a whole new world to discover!
